About Sachem Cornstalk (of Cornstalk) daughter's first name is unknown


Origins

Based on Sugden, John (1999). "Cornstalk". American National Biography. Oxford University Press.

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Shawnee-45

There is no reliable source for the name of a wife or wives.

Children seen as:

  • Cutemwha (The Wolf) In the 1780s, Cutemwha (also known as Piaseka or Biaseka), would emerge an important Shawnee chief.[7]
  • Allanawissica (also called Elinipsico).[1] Elinipsico died with his father at Point Pleasant. [3] [8]
  • Wissecapoway, aka Captain Morgan, was a Shawnee held captive by Lord Dunmore during 1775 in Williamsburg, VA. He is also said to be a son of Cornstalk, the Shawnee Chief. [9] Dunmore later released him. Nothing more is known about him.
  • A unnamed daughter was mentioned in the pension application of a Henry Aleshite who stated he was at Point Pleasant when Cornstalk and a white man who was married to Cornstalk's daughter were murdered. Her name is not given, nor is the name of the 'white man.' [10]

Peter Cornstalk (Wynepeuchsika), a noted Shawnee chief, was apparently not Cornstalk's son, as is sometimes written.[11]
